Crock Pot Cooking

I love to cook in my Crock Pot. I use it quite often. I just found a great blog of Crock Pot recipes. It is called Crock Pot 365. Check it out. There are some *yummy* recipes there!

After Fire Pictures

Beware, these will make you sick - I was! These pictures are hard to look at. I hope grandma never sees these pictures - they would literally make her ill. Carl and my mom went over there on Saturday to check it out one more time - and to take these pictures.

The end of an ERA

About 10 am this morning we received a phone call from the Gooding City Sheriff. He told us that my grandma's house at 917 Wyoming Street was on fire. My first initial reaction was - no way! Then I thought...OH MY GOSH!!!!

So, Carl and I got in the car and went right over there. When we got there, this is what we saw. It is sad that my grandma's house that my grandpa built for her is gone. I feel so sad to whom ever it is who gets to tell her the sad news. She is living is Salt Lake City, so she wasn't in the house at the time. And Carl and I had cleaned out the house completely, so it was entirely empty - so no possessions were lost in the fire - just a home that my grandma LOVED!!

Snow Day!

Sunday, October 4th - Conference Sunday - We woke up this morning to a couple inches of snow on the ground - what a glorious site it is. Looks like it's time to put the pool away. It is still coming down now (9:30 am), although I am sure it will be gone by afternoon, but we are sure enjoying it while it is here. All the blinds are wide open so we can see it in every room we go into. The Hacking family sure loves the snow!
